• Any installed charging equipment and its connection to the building wiring.
• The building wiring, including any wall outlet used with a Mobile Connector.
• The electrical connection to the power utility line where it enters the building.
Discuss with the electrician whether the charge current on the vehicle should be lowered, or if the installation should
be upgraded to support a higher charge current.
As this alert is usually specific to external charging equipment and power sources, and it does not typically indicate
an issue with your vehicle that can be resolved by scheduling service, it is recommended that you:
• Try charging with multiple, different types of charging equipment at different locations.
• Contact an electrician to inspect the wiring and equipment at your normal charging location.
You can also try charging your vehicle using a Tesla Supercharger or Destination Charging location, all of which can
be located through the map on your vehicle's touchscreen display. See
details. Additional third-party charging stations may also be available in your area to help you to pinpoint the issue.

Charging stopped - Power lost while charging
Check power source and charging equipment
Power has been lost during charging. This could result from the charging equipment losing power from the source
(for example, a wall outlet) or from an issue with the charging equipment.
This alert is often accompanied by other alerts that can help you identify and troubleshoot the issue. Start by
investigating any other displayed alerts that relate to charging issues.
Alternatively, you can check Mobile Connector or Wall Connector status lights to confirm power to the device, and
also refer to the product owner's manual for troubleshooting information based on blink codes. If using other (non-
Tesla) external charging equipment, check for a display or other user interface that provides troubleshooting help.
If there is clearly no power to the charging equipment, check the circuit breaker for the wall outlet / Wall Connector
to make sure it has not tripped.
Further troubleshooting tips based on equipment type:
• If using a Mobile Connector, try charging the vehicle with a different wall outlet.
◦ If the vehicle starts to charge, the issue was likely with the original wall outlet. It is recommended that you
contact an electrician to inspect the building wiring connection to that outlet.
◦ If the vehicle still does not charge, the issue may be with the Mobile Connector.
• If using a Wall Connector, try charging the vehicle with different charging equipment like a Mobile Connector
powered by a separate wall outlet.
◦ If the vehicle starts to charge, the issue was likely with the Wall Connector. Contact an electrician to inspect
the building wiring connection to the Wall Connector. They should make sure that all wires are properly
connected and torqued according to the installation guide for the Wall Connector.
As this alert is usually specific to external charging equipment and power sources, and it does not typically indicate
an issue with your vehicle that can be resolved by scheduling service, it is recommended that you:
• Try charging with different wall outlets.
• Try charging with different charging equipment.
